16th International Conference on Domain Decomposition Methods

该研究员将于2005年1月在纽约市主办第十六届区域分解方法国际会议。域分解，在某种形式上，是迄今为止大规模并行分布式，分层存储器计算机上的大规模模拟最常见的范例。然而，许多区域分解的用户并没有利用已知的最复杂和有效的方法。这是特别真实的，因为在过去的几年里，大型科学模拟社区的规模随着硬件的可用性而迅速增长，而科学社区与计算数学或计算机科学社区没有传统的紧密联系。本系列的第十六次会议将对大型仿真社区产生重大影响。会议的最终目标是通过鼓励整个国际计算科学工程界的跨学科技术交流，并利用会议选址吸引许多新的美国科学家到这个重要领域，促进区域分解方法的进步。

The investigator will host the Sixteenth International Conference on Domain Decomposition Methods in New York City in January 2005. Domain decomposition, in some form, is by far the most common paradigm for large-scale simulation on massively parallel distributed, hierarchical memory computers. However, many users of domain decomposition do not avail themselves of the most sophisticated and efficient methods known. This is especially true as the size of the large-scale scientific simulation community has grown rapidly with the availability of hardware in the past few years inside of scientific communities without traditionally strong ties to the computational mathematics or computer science communities. The sixteenth conference in this series will have a high impact for the large-scale simulation community. The ultimate goal of the conference is to promote advances in domain decomposition methods by encouraging interdisciplinary technical interchange throughout the international computational science & engineering community and by taking advantage of conference siting to attract to this important area many new U.S. scientists.
